Mustang Gt Install ported 18’ intake manifold, 47 LB injectors, & Lund tune *gen 2 coyote*

We did an in depth Install with a detailed vacuum routing of this ported 18’ + intake manifold from the gen 3 coyote onto this gen 2 coyote Mustang. We also installed injectors and we showed the comparison of the intake manifolds side by side. We showed how the IMRC's work, but ours are locked out. The car is tuned by Lund and we have three tunes being 93/flex fuel/E85r. We forgot to throw in the clip of us swapping in the new Injectors, but it’s fairly simple. Pop the old ones out and make sure the O rings aren’t left behind in the rails, or the new injectors won’t seat and it will leak fuel. We recommend using O ring lube when installing the new ones so you don’t tear one of the O rings. During step 9 the camera shut off but we put the instructions on the screen, and that step is fairly simple.

[@brentrichards1200]

IMRC lockouts are highly recommended on boosted applications. Makes tuning much easier.

[@ThrottleHavoc]

Yep absolutely, they make tuning much easier, and it’s safer for boosted cars because of the possibility that the IMRCs can break from the additional air pressure due to boost. Honestly we though about keeping them while the car was n/a but it’s eventually going to be boosted, and we didn’t want to bother with routing vacuum lines to keep them.

[@DiablitoSpeedz]

Dope vid bro. that mani is going In on my stang soon. Supposed to be good with nos so let’s see what it does

So is the 18 manifold and lockouts all that's needed to install it to a gen 2? My local shop is telling me i need a evap relocation and 18 brake booster hose assembly. Is that true?

[@ThrottleHavoc]

They must not know what they are doing, or they are trying to make you pay extra money. Everything we showed in the video is all you need, so we are not sure why they told you this. At worse you may have to buy the plug and play wiring kit for the imrc’s if you decide to keep them active. If you keep the imrc’s the vacuum routing will be a bit different but aside from that nothing else. Our suggestion would be to just follow along with the video if you can, or find a different shop. We aren’t sure why they would be telling you this but it’s definitely not the case.

[@jesusgomez364]

Awesome detailed vid man. Question though, so if I ever wanted to revert back to stock I'd have to buy new hoses/lines since they've been cut right?

[@ThrottleHavoc]

Thankyou! To answer your question yes you would have to buy new hoses/lines. Don’t worry thought it’s not a big issue, I’d suggest just taking the whole vacuum assembly off when you’re doing the job and taking it to a parts store with you. At that point just get the various hose sizes you need and cut them down to the right size so you know that in the future if you ever have to go back to stock you have the exact sizes and lengths. Hope this helps!

[@sonydominates]

Awesome video guys! I saw the videos from VMP too haha. I'm looking to do this mod pretty soon, so thanks!! Also, how's the Airaid CAI? I've been thinking of getting a CAI, but a lot of people say that it doesn't do much unless you're doing forced induction. Also, people complaining about idle ambient temps. So, I've been eyeing the Airaid since it's closed box. Thanks, and keep it up!!!

[@ThrottleHavoc]

Thanks for watching! The Airaid is a good intake, it’s been on the car for about 3.5 years now and its done it’s job. Dyno video drops tomorrow as well and it made good power so even though it’s no tune required I think it does well vs the competition. I definitely suggest sticking with a closed box cold air. Not the roush closed cold air though, my friend has one and his air temps still gets super hot, it’s almost as if it was an open element intake. Pmas and things of the sort are great, but what’s the point of having all that extra air if it’s going to be 150+ degrees when it’s hot outside. The car is just going to pull timing so I definitely suggest a closed box cold air. We are going to be doing some more dynos test to see if the airaid makes the same or similar power with the other bigger intakes . We also have access to a steeda closed cold air and thought about maybe doing a head to head test. Glad we can help!

[@sonydominates]

@@ThrottleHavoc awesome!! Thanks for the tips! I heard the Steeda needs to have the Mass Air Flow sensor fixed, but still hasn't, but that would make another great video!! Thanks!

@@sonydominates yea they haven’t fixed the maf sensor placement yet, but regardless even if the idle is a little off if it gives more performance we won’t mind. Keep an eye out we will probably do a video on it in a few months just for data purposes for the mustang community to have.

[@ThrottleHavoc]

@@sonydominates unfortunately we don’t have Facebook, but Thankyou for the offer and trying to help out. Luckily one of our friends has one he isn’t using for free so it’s just a matter of swapping it over and updating the tune. We will probably do it after the car gets headers.

[@dave-8910]

Awesome work on the video, made the swap look far less intimidating and inspired me to get mine done ASAP 😎 Just gotta wait for my intake to reach here in Australia, any idea if it is safe to run the car without the tune until I get it ready for a dyno tune?

[@ThrottleHavoc]

I’m glad we could help you out, thanks for tuning in to the video. We haven’t seen anyone run the car without a tune after a manifold install, so we aren’t 100% sure but to be honest I wouldn’t advise it. You’d be flowing quite a bit more air so I doubt the car would even idle. If it did some how run and you were able to drive the car the extra air might create a bad lean condition so I don’t think it would be very safe honestly.

[@AB-lr3fh]

I put this on my 2013 and drove for three weeks without at tune revision. I have a lot of bolt on parts and a tune for those parts taken into account but like I said nothing for the intake manifold. The cars idle was not amazing and I never went WOT but I drove nearly 80miles in those three weeks and I was no worse then when started

[@ThrottleHavoc]

@@AB-lr3fh thanks for the info, we wouldn’t have tried it but that’s good to know that it will run. That’s why we said it was possible but didn’t want to recommend it. We didn’t want to be the reasons someone’s car got messed up unless we knew it was safe 😂. Was your manifold ported version or non ported?

Just want to say a big thanks to you guys at Throttle Havoc just finished my install for my 2018 intake and if it wasn't for your video I probably wouldn't have contemplated doing it myself. Sorry for the late reply, better late than never 😅 Besides small issue with my air raid intake sitting higher and not closing the hood, everything went smooth gotta say not sure if they changed the runner colour but my 18+ intake which according to the numbers must be the latest one it's black on the runners rather than the dark grey but looks like a GT350 Intake now

[@meankawi]

Okay guys I'm looking at installing 2018 mustang GT intake manifold (ported), JLT intake, and a 5star SCT Livewire tuner. I saw that they have Norstrum mustang GT fuel injectors and was wondering if it was worth it with my other mods?

[@ThrottleHavoc]

I’m not sure what the Nordstrom injectors are so I can’t say, however it depends on what mods you plan on doing. If you’re staying on pump gas and just bolt ons you don’t need injectors and you won’t see any benefit from them. If you plan on running e85 with the manifold upgrade then you will need the injectors, but if not then don’t waste the money.

[@zachblumberg1328]

I’ve done this exact setup my car starts idles then dies. Replaced the purge valve and nothing any idea?

[@ThrottleHavoc]

Check your vacuum routing again to make sure there is no leaks. If the purge valve is good, there are no vacuum leaks, and the throttlebody is working properly I’m not sure what else it could be. You would need to talk to your tuner to see what else you might need to check.

[@fgj8379]

Did you guys order the intake from Auto Mafia?

[@ThrottleHavoc]

Initially we were going to, but they were backed up at the moment so we got it from VMP.

[@loggik442]

Does the 5.0 cover still fit on the manifold after the swap or will I have to just get rid of it ?

[@ThrottleHavoc]

If you want to use the cover you’re going to have to cut and modify the rear corner of the cover on the passenger side. If you don’t do that then it won’t sit on the manifold correctly and you won’t be able to use the cover like we did.

[@loggik442]

What year model cai did you guys use? And how did it fit. I’m going to a ported 18mani, in my gen 2. Idk if I need a 18+ cai or a 15-17 cai.

[@ThrottleHavoc]

At this time the intake it had was for 15-17 and it works fine. Your gen 2 air intake will work fine. The only issue I had was that since the gen 3 manifold has more an angle at the mouth it puts the intake up a bit and the hood closes fine however you’ll see it rubbing a bit on the hood liner. I later on installed some dropped motor mounts and it fixed that issue, but other than that whatever intake you have will be fine.

[@Dailycontent56]

@@ThrottleHavocthanks my man

[@xtwonx]

How much low end torque did you lose from the stock intake manifold to the ported 18?

[@ThrottleHavoc]

None actually, but that’s only because my car didn’t get tuned until I installed the 18 manifold. If your car isn’t tuned before you swap them you will only see gains. If you’re already tuned then you’ll notice a torque loss. If you want to see the dyno graph before and after the 18 manifold it’s in this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/lWi7fpuOp8uri5Ysi=1NZl8nlJ8k0oDgHh . Of course the tune made a big difference as well but yea even with the low end torque loss it’s worth it for the top end.

Man everybody told me you can’t run the 15-17 engine cover on the 18 manifold. But clearly you guys are running it here, was there any modifications to make that work or just slapped it on?

[@ThrottleHavoc]

Yea we had to modify it. I didn’t think to record the process but I just bought a dremel from harbor freight and like a 4-6 inch hacksaw from autozone. All you have to do is clearance the back passenger side of the intake manifold cover. Best way is if you have the 18 manifold off of the car sit it down and then sit the engine cover on top of it. It will don’t forward hard and then you will see what parts are contacting in the back. Once you see that just start trimming away parts of the engine cover and it will eventually sit flush like what you see in the video.

[@dxr1vnt024]

Air aid over Pmas and jlt?

[@ThrottleHavoc]

I switched to a steeda pro flo closed box. The airaid is cool but it’s no tune required, so the inlet tube isn’t as big compared to the other two you mentioned. Pmas has a really clean maf reading and it flows well, JLT is good too but I don’t like those style of intakes because they heat soak really bad. I personally would take a closed box intake over a pmas or JLT, but I live in flordia so temps get hot.

@@tobiash082700 ahh ok I was figuring that’s what you meant but I wasn’t super sure so I was a bit confused 😂. So yea it depends on your set up. I jumped from being untuned on stock manifold to a tune with the 18 manifold. I didn’t notice a difference with taking the imrc off because it wasn’t tuned before. With the dyno after deleting the aspirators it made the same if not more power with them deleted on the gen 3 manifold vs the stock manifold everywhere in the power band only because of the tune. Now if you have a tuned gen 2 coyote with a stock manifold and you’re switching to an 18 manifold with the aspirators deleted you’ll definitely feel the lack of low and low midrange power. That aside no other negative effects, it makes tuning easier and the install easier but that’s about it.
